StrykerSR-955HPC 10 Meter Amateur Radio

This radio has great audio out of the box! You’ll love this radio if you ever had an export or galaxy radio? You’ll love this one even more!Asymmetrical modulation and plenty of swing stock.Just jump a solder pad to expand frequency coverage.Swings over 60w peak out of box. Not necessary to tune up to hot rod! I made just a minor bias adjustment for linearity and Ssb signals. ALC adjusted for ssb waveform. Was all that was needed. Receiver good to -128dbm on am! Over -130dbm ssb! Out of box! Easy to use menu. Echo and talkback are clean and clear with stock mic. The optional ranger SRA-198 mic is a great choice (better audio and cancellation) for an optional mic vs the optional stryker (muffled - bassy) noise cancellation mic. Size is comparable to a standard (galaxy 33-99 or 2950 size) export rig. Performance is just outstanding! On frequency out of the box! Modulation is perfect at 95-99% beautiful waveform on spectrum and scope! Excellent receiver! Try one, you’ll either thank me or yourself later! If you’re going to spend the money on a radio with frequencies that usually have SSB activity on them? Why get a am fm only radio 655? Get the SSB and AM/FM fully capable radio the 955! Value

I will be updating this as time goes by. This radio is awesome.Got it home and immediately did the frequency unlock. It was a very tiny tiny square modern resister. My mother in law used to solder for medical equipment. She unsoldered the resister in minutes. I had her look over the board and imspect all the joints. She said they were fairly clean and she found no cracks no cold joints.Being so modern PCB construction I would assume it will last as diesel mobile.The software is fairly easy to operate. Works on windows 10 64bit. Has very nice features like swr cut off and low and high power safteys.One disappointments was the roger beep. I was hoping to beable to use .wav files to.have a custom roger beep. Its kind of time consuming to created something original because its drop down menus to select the sound freq hz and time. They could have made it an input form. If they update the app it would be very easy to implement.I won't dock a star for the roger.beep however.This rig works on upper ssb really good, I was getting over 100 watts out on the built in meter.On Am I was very surprised, this radio is very quite. RF gain almost all the way up ( knob all the way to the right) with squaltch turned off no static with NB on a 1.5 swr. I could here contacts from 15 miles away so far.Contacts so far say I sound Krystal clear and are amazed at the differences between my this and my comnex 3300zx.Thanks stryker for the great radio so far. I hope.you update the appI'd love to see a easier to use roger beep customize menu Add a copy and paste script input so users can share each others.Sorry for punctuation and spelling I'm on a mobile device

I have been the Stryker radio for several weeks in my vehicle and have been very impressed with the functionality and quality of the radio.The stock microphone is paired very well to the radio; however, you will achieve even better audio quality if a quality dynamic mic is used with the radio. I have received very good reports on the audio while using an Astatic 636L microphone with the radio ($60 at any Pilot or Love's truck stop). The radio is also paired with a Wilson 1000 magnet mount on my setup which is also an excellent mobile antenna.The radio has a large and effective heat sink (cooling fins) on the back of the radio that sticks out a bit...so be sure to check your mounting space / clearances before performing an install.Software to customize the radio is available for download at the Stryker website. The software allows customization of frequencies assigned to channels in each band as well as customization of roger beeps and radio operating parameters. (6) roger beeps may be programmed and individually assigned to individual channels. Especially nice is the ability to set operating ranges for voltage, max SWR, and max key down time...all of which serve to protect the (4) MOSFET output transistors from damage.Finally, there are few radios that look as SWEET as the Stryker SR-955HPC. There is a fairly large signal meter to the left of the face plate and the back-lighting on the face plate looks amazing...especially at night.There are several YouTube videos out there on this radio as well as other reviews, so check those out. Buy with confidence, this is a rock-solid transceiver and you won't be disappointed if you purchase one.

Super confused why a new radio came with sticky notes saying “don’t work” and “remove speaker wire” these are good radios but apparently got a lemon. Still not working right

Great features. Definitely easy to use at night with full backlighting. Good receiver and good transmit.
